Elizabeth Weir/John Sheppard Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread

[Eri13]

Gee, I guess this means Sparky is not only a "Ghost Ship" but a "Flying Dutchman" under their definition:
1. A pairing with the minor obstacle of one side being dead (or "just hiding") at the time.
2. The Crack Pairing that wouldn't go away, or the Draco In Leather Pants ship that refuses to die despite the best efforts of the author and other fans.
3. A ship involving undead characters. Most ships in Bleach qualify for this definition of Ghost Ship by the very nature of the show.
* Flying Dutchman: A Ghost Ship that actually outlives the run of the series.

*snickers*

*dies laughing*

This is SO HYSTERICAL. I know there's more minor Sparky stuff around...I don't remember exactly where it is.

And Rodney apparently is the Little Black Dress . ROTFLMAO!

There's something on SGA here about abandoning ship . *snort*

And really I have in no way done a comprehensive survey because you could spend days reading this but I haven't found anything negative about Sparky.

I'm in hysterics about Dean Winchester as a LBD, although that's totally true.

Watching the rerun of Trinity on SyFy right now... ZOMG, the Spanky anvils are flying left and right!

And ooh, here comes that big Sparky anvil where McKay pleads to Sheppard to convince Lizzie to let McKay keep working on Arcturus because he knows that Lizzie will listen to John!

And Rodney apparently is the Little Black Dress . ROTFLMAO!

*shrieks of laughter* Oh, that's priceless!

*sneaks in and pokes everyone with a stick*



SPARKY ROCKS!

*pokes back* Yes, Sparky totally rocks!

[Regularamanda]

I'm watching Trinity as well...I was squeeing with the scene with Caldwell. This is such a good episode...I miss episodes like this *grumbles*

I agree about Dean but I see John as more of an LBD than Rodney. ???

:: runs in .. wavies.. runs out ::

Miss me?

We do indeed.

Yes we do! Don't be a stranger!

That's true... with the whole 'Kirk'/'slut of the Pegasus Galaxy'/'hot flyboy with a pulse' thing some people seem wont to pin on him, John really is a bit of an LBD in fandom.

Havn't been a stranger, just havn't had much time lately :: hugs :: missed you all!!!

It's late on the 18th, but here is an itsy bitsy morsel. It's a song fic with song courtesy of my man Mr. Holly. If you fancy a listen to the song, here's a link to the REAL song, not a hack job cover. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OHge1fQJfo

Spoiler:

Elizabeth Weir walked the halls of Atlantis thinking about what happened to her earlier. Carson explained nanites had taken over her body. She overtly shuddered at the thought and stopped to regain her bearings. Apparently John Sheppard had come to her rescue again.

Everyday it's a gettin' closer
Goin' faster than a roller coaster
Love like yours will surely come my way

John Sheppard laid on his bed staring at the ceiling. Another close call with Elizabeth. The lecture about quarantine procedures from Carson was rather dry, but he scored the day a winner. John got up to grab a beer and heard a knock on his door.

"Come on in," John answered.

"I hope I'm not disturbing you. I just wanted to... talk," Elizabeth said as she entered John's room.

"It's no problem. Hey, you want a beer?" John asked as he held up another bottle.

"Actually yes, that would be great," Elizabeth responded taking the bottle.

"Glad I could help," John smiled.

"You know what the grapevine is going to say about us?" Elizabeth joked with a brow raise.

Everyday it's a gettin' faster
Everyone said go ahead and ask her
Love like yours will surely come my way

"Screw the grapevine," John said flatly and took a drink of his beer.

"I've heard they even have a pool about when we start dating," Elizabeth grinned.

"What!" John coughed and wiped away some beer he spilled on himself.

"Maybe they see something we don't," Elizabeth shrugged and took a drink form her beer.

"Yeah sure," John tried to be nonchalant in his answer.

Everyday seems a little longer
Every way love's a little stronger
Come what may
Do you ever long for
True love from me

"John, does that bother you?" Elizabeth asked.

"Well, yeah it does. It's not like I'm..." John paused.

"Kirk?" Elizabeth tilted her head and raised her brow.

"Ouch," John frowned and suddenly found his beer to be very interesting.

"John, I was only kidding," Elizabeth smiled finding John's embarrassment endearing.

"I know. You know, there was a Mrs. Sheppard," John tried to perk up.

"Really?" Elizabeth raised her brow in interest.

"Yeah. She left me though. Said my work was too secretive. I was Spec Ops, not like I can grill steaks and tell her about my day. Oh well, I guess there's a good woman out there someplace," John kept his gaze fixed on his beer bottle afraid of what his boss might see in his eyes.

Everyday it's a gettin' closer
Goin' faster than a roller coaster
Love like yours will surely come my way

"She's a fool," Elizabeth put her hand on John's shoulder.

"You're a good man John Sheppard. Loyal, honest, and trustworthy. Three very admirable qualities," Elizabeth explained.

"Really? You think so?" John's boyish response made Elizabeth smile.

"Yes John. I do," Elizabeth looked John in the eye.

Everyday seems a little longer
Every way love's a little stronger
Come what may
Do you every long for
True love from me

John and Elizabeth locked eyes for a moment. For one of the rare times, they could not read each other. Elizabeth thought John might be hiding something. And John was unable to find if Elizabeth's words had more than meaning. The cat and mouse game continued until they mutually ended the search.

Everyday it's a gettin' closer
Goin' faster than a roller coaster
Love like yours will surely come my

"Well... thanks," Elizabeth spoke as she placed her empty bottle in the trash.

"For the beer? It's no big deal," John shrugged.

"And for the talk," Elizabeth added.

"I may have to come talk with you one day," John's tone went serious.

"Anytime," Elizabeth replied before the door closed.

Love like yours will surely come way

Enjoy

I had to look up what LBD meant. Yes, TPTW put Shep up as the LBD. But I still wanted to see Lizzie in a little black dress. (Drools... more drool.) Thanks y'all for the compliments and I glad you enjoyed it. I'm also glad y'all are Buddy Holly fans. I've used a few of his songs ("Girl on my Mind" and "Rave On") recently. Hmm, maybe the next topic for the great debate series; "More influential rock'n'roller: Elvis or Buddy Holly?"
